Canada-based tech-death specialists BENEATH THE MASSACRE have released a video to “Autonomous Mind”.
The band comments:
“We re excited to finally launch the music video for ‘Autonomous Mind’. We managed to work on the project in between lock downs and other Covid related restrictions and are very pleased with the result. The creativity of the director Chris Kells really allowed us to do a lot of the original script that we thought impossible to produce. All around, it is a very aesthetic video that should trigger questions in the viewers mind. Enjoy!”
“Fearmonger” is the band’s fourth album and Century Media debut. It’s an album that flows naturally yet retains, but still very much extreme and tech-death to the max. BENEATH THE MASSACRE’s trademark go-for-the-jugular sound.
Bad Timing is the latest single from the DEAD DIRTY DINOSAURS and the third release with the force that is Riot Records and their parent company Golden Robot Records. Bad Timing is the follow up to recent singles Monica and Revenge.
Life is never simple and relationships can take us all to the depths of confusion, on all sorts of levels. Bad Timing takes a sneak peak at a few moments in time for two people who have no clue what they want or how to get it, sound familiar?
The Treble D’s bring you another pounding indie rock anthem that will keep you bouncing all the way until the final woos. The trademark riffs are back with a dirty bassline and the driving drums that we are starting to expect as standard from the Dead Dirty Dino’s.
Dead Dirty Dinosaurs are Brisbane icons in the making.
Following a long tradition of powerful music coming out of South East QLD these cantankerous troubadours have been pouring blood, sweat and tears into their music and the result will leave you smiling.
Tackling todays endless stream of daily calamities and staying positive through it all the DDD’s songs of love, life, dubiously deadly careers and a sly look at our wild surroundings all throb with the “night out” energy that we’re all craving right now.
Three Jurassic music lovers who met in the snow fields of Europe but ended up brought together here by a force that can’t be ignored.
A love of 90’s alt rock, punk, post punk and post rock combined with a need to make a mark on a new era in their lives set them on a path with one goal, to snag the support slot for the Pixies in Brisbane.
The pandemic has put that dream off for the moment but signing to Golden Robot and Riot Records combined has started a whole new path and who knows where that’s going to lead us all.
In support of their new album “Escape Of The Phoenix” via AFM Records on February 26th 2021 Swedish progressive metal band EVERGREY will be hitting the road for an extensive tour throughout Europe in 2021.
As special guest EVERGREY invited no less than dark melodic heavy metal juggernaut from Los Angeles WITHERFALL. Bringing along their third opus “Curse Of Autumn” (to be released March 5th, 2021 via Century Media Records), the quintet are blazing new trails and weaving new tales, offering a genuine metal classic with an expressive song-writing and a refined and perfectionized sound of their distinguished and musically-adept dark melodic heavy metal.
Opening support comes from the Modern Metal quintet DUST IN MIND, one of the most up and coming French bands today.
EVERGREY Front-man Tom Englund states: “We are really happy to announce a tour of Europe next fall and let’s all hope that the world is in a better place by that time so we get to see all you lovely people again!“
WITHERFALL comment: “After a long and tense year WITHERFALL are extremely happy to announce the very first tour dates in support of our soon to be released Album ‘Curse of Autumn’ as special guests with the brilliant Evergrey. We look forward to seeing all of our European friends and are excited to make some new ones in these new and uncharted waters.”

Buffalo NWOCR band HEARTS & HAND GRENADES have revealed a new music video and single for the title track off their forthcoming album, “Turning To Ashes“. The video was directed by Charles Butera. Watch it right now via YouTube:
“Turning To Ashes” is the third single and title track from the band’s new full-length album Turning To Ashes which drops worldwide on January 8, 2021 via Eclipse Records.
“This song is about being held back by the circumstances surrounding you and facing a decision to break out of your comfort zone, move forward into the unknown, and leave the past behind you” says front-woman Stephanie Wlosinski. “Turning To Ashes is a relatable song for everyone I think, so we wanted the intensity of the music to match that of the fire theme that happens throughout the video.” Guitarist Mike Bress adds, “the fire theme throughout the video fits well with the chorus of the song, ‘the bridge is burned that leads me home and I’m turning to ashes’, so we wanted to visually represent that at some point you’ve got to move ahead, take risks, otherwise there’s no change for rewards in life… sometimes indecision is going to leave you burned.”
Turning To Ashes is a hard rockin’ energetic debut from Hearts & Hand Grenades. Fronted by Stephanie Wlosinski on lead vocals and bass guitar, the band’s first two singles quickly made inroads with the NWOCR scene this year, and not even the holiday break can stop this band’s momentum! Watch the music videos for their first two singles “The In Crowd” and “Nothing Left” right now!
Rockshots Records is proud to announce their signing of Grenoble, France’s AVALAND, an epic and symphonic metal opera, directed, written, and composed by young 22-year-old prodigy Adrien G. Gzagg.
Inspired by heroic fantasy, history, mythologies, and esoterism, Gzagg decided to create an epic story with 8 characters. Entitled “Theater Of Sorcery”, the debut will be a theatrical metal adventure that tells the story of a young sorcerer Adam Wilstorm who could be the salvation of bringing back the light to the kingdom of Avaland and during his journey, he must learn to control his powers linked to the Storm.
For AVALAND, Gzagg reunited with four musician friends Camille Souffron (Bass), Christophe Feutrier (Guitars), Lucas Martinez (Guitars), and Léo Mouchonay (Drums) that he has performed with in the past to help him to record the metal opera’s debut full-length. The record also includes talented guests for vocals and guitars with Ralf Scheepers(Primal Fear), Zak Stevens(Savatage/TSO), Zaher Zorgati (Myrath), Emmanuelson(Rising Steel), Stéphan Forté(Adagio), Madie (Nightmare) among many other great musicians.
Gzagg adds: “I started my heavy metal life as a great fan of Avantasia and Ayreon. I was impressed by those big teams Tobias Sammet and Arjen Lucassen could create. I quickly knew I would make something like this in my life! It wasn’t easy to find musicians who were crazy enough to follow me in this adventure, and I thank them so much for their trust in this project, especially guitarist Christophe Feutrier (guitars) my partner in crime for Avaland for 5 years now.
“I like to also add that Avaland is not a “classic” band, it’s a Metal-Opera and when Covid is over, I plan to take it the stage with many vocalists to perform this theatrical tale of an epic and magical story. To sum it up, Avaland is a modern-age opera to not just fans of metal, but beyond!”
“Theater Of Sorcery” album will be released in April 2021, while first single is expected in January 2021!
Italian alternative hard rockers A PERFECT DAY give us a full insight of the recordings and the “life in the studio” during the creation of their latest album “With Eyes Wide Open”.
Watch the video below.
“With Eyes Wide Open” is out now through ROAR! Rock of Angels Records, physically and digitally worldwide!
The third born in the A PERFECT DAY family, entitled “With Eyes Wide Open” and delighted by the touch of the renowned producer Marco Barusso, allows the sound an impressively broader and more American-like airplay, as the band rediscovers a truly free-range and impetuous attitude. Ten intense, passionate and concise songs that definitively replace the late 80’s class metal influences with the more recent hard blues revival of Black Stone Cherry and Blackberry Smoke, keeping the mandatory alternative rock/post-grunge junction at the center of the band’s sound.
